I don't think there is any way to do this in general. Unlike mouse
position, text cursor position is completely up to each application,
and has nothing to do with the window manager. Some applications
don't even have a concept of "text cursor". So if there is a way to
do it for specific applications, it would have to somehow involve
querying the application for the text cursor position.
